The story
This is a novel about 5 young men growing up in the suburbs of Cleveland, Ohio, in the early to late 90s. The main characters in this story are identical twin brothers named after archangels that can both sing, but play different instruments.

Lou - Standing at 6'3.5" this thin rail of boy can play the hell out of the drums.

Raph - Standing at6'3" this beanstalk (but slightly thicker) of a boy could wail and shred with the best of 'em.

Johnny Brevard (JB) - About 5' 7" tall and can play guitar like a god.

Mark - Best bassist in the entire area. Slightly flamboyant, but awesome on stage.

Donny - Nicknamed 7Dust because he looks like the lead singer, this is the second bassist for the band. Also works in a cookie shop.
